25 of the Best Calligraphy Fonts for Designers. Browser Testing: A Family Tree. One task drives web professionals to distraction more than almost any other: testing whether their design works equally well in a multitude of browsers and on different devices. The list of browsers and platforms to verify against keeps getting longer, and as designers, our tempers are getting proportionally shorter; IE6 will probably feature in nightmares for years to come!
Yet doing our work in an ever-widening range of situations is becoming increasingly important. This article highlights the most common issues that arise when testing with “the usual suspects” and explains why a change in tactics may soon be needed. Your entire perspective on compatibility testing could change. The Fantastic Five Back during the browser wars, designers had to suffer through constant bickering between Internet Explorer and its rival (some things never change). Times are changing. Although the market is dominated by five browsers, designers shouldn’t disregard the orange “Others” slice. The Long-Term Cure. Internet - Displaying HTML Source Code in Web Pages.

Microsoft Windows chief: 'We're all in' for IE9, HTML5. Two weeks ago, Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer debuted his company’s new slogan for all things Web: “We’re all in.” The phrase made another appearance Tuesday at Microsoft’s MIX10 conference for Web developers in Las Vegas. Steven Sinofsky, president of the Windows and Windows Live division, made his bet on Internet Explorer 9 and its support of an emerging standard, HTML5. “We’ve built Internet Explorer 9 from the ground up on top of the Windows 7 platform,” Sinofsky said during a cameo in IE general manager Dean Hachamovitch’s keynote.
As has been previously reported, IE9 – expected to be released next year – can use a computer’s hardware processing power to render graphics. On stage, Hachamovitch and Sinofsky showed a number of examples in which IE9 displayed graphics more quickly and more smoothly than Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome. The browser also supports HTML5, an emerging standard for writing Web pages. Ballmer said it then; Sinofsky said it Tuesday: “We’re all in.” Panopticlick.
Webdesign. Silverlight hits 50% Goodbye XML… Hello YAML (part 1) Part 2 This is the first in a many-part series in which I will be writing about using YAML in the .Net space – particularly within C#. I will cover the whys, the hows, and show some tricks using the dynamic capabilities of C# when using YAML. I might even explore IronRuby a bit. Why YAML? I got the chance to sit in on four days of Ruby on Rails (RoR) training from Joe Obrien a few weeks ago. I hadn’t played with RoR in a few months, and this training was amazingly useful. In this case, one of the things I took away with me was YAML. Over 10 years ago, when XML was touted as a human-readable data format, I had to scoff. 10 years later, we are still using XML as our primary data transfer/persistence/definition format. Currently, my colleague Mike Woelmer and I have a client who needs us to develop an engine where the business rules will be entered by a human (not a developer) and will change as the project evolves.
Here is the exact same data described with YAML: HTML 5 validation in Visual Studio.
